Perfect short!

I love these shorts! I find them to be the perfect length for me, short without being too short where you feel like you may be showing too much. I am so glad that I finally found a cut of short that works for me. Fit true to size in my opinion. Bought them in 5 different colors!

Comfy and stylish

a month ago
These are now my go to jeans when going out. They have the perfect amount of stretchiness and doesnt feel stiff when walking. The pockets are deep enough to where my phone or money wont fall out. I can't wait to buy my next pair of Levi jeans!

Perfect for summer

a month ago
With this hot heat weather Levi’s shorts are the way to go u can dress it up or dress down which I love it fits and hugs your body in all the rice places and make your peach look good. I would recommend sizing up with Levi’s a size or 2 since they do shrink over time when you wash and dry but I love Levi’s shorts for how long they last. Especially these white short I can go classy look or casual and even country with my boots obsessed definitely recommend you to get a pair you will thank me later

The perfect shorts for summer!

a month ago
These shorts are incredibly flattering! I love that I can dress them up or down. They are form fitting with little stretch or give - very much true to size. I didn’t notice much shrinkage after washing. In all, these are the perfect shorts for summer!

Perfect high quality, staple short

a month ago
You can tell these are high quality shorts and the color is as shown in the pictures online. The original 501 fit specifically has no stretch as stated online, so if you have a smaller waist and bigger thighs, that’s worth noting.

Classic jean shorts

a month ago
Love how these shorts fit. The material is on the thick side and they have enough coverage without being jorts. High waist is a must for me and these fit nicely up on the waist. A classic from Levi’s and I hope they don’t stop making this style.

Classic never dies

I absolutely love these 501 High Rise shorts! The fit is flattering, the high waist is very comfortable, and the denim feels high quality. They have that classic Levi's look and go with almost everything. I would definitely recommend them if you're looking for timeless denim shorts!

501s

a month ago
I love the color and cut of my shorts. They are exactly what I was hoping for with the 501s. I know other reviews stated these ran on the smaller side and to size up, but I found my regular size fit well/was even slightly large. If I got another pair, I’d probably size down in order to have that tighter fit around the waist.

These are high-quality Levi’s jean shorts. I like that they are high rise. The only thing I don’t like it that the jean shorts don’t move. I wear these for short periods of time.
